A语篇解读本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了姚明进入NBA的心路历程,从不被看好,到赢得美国球员的尊重,姚明最终改变了美国人对中国人的看法。1.B推理判断题。根据第三段中When Yao first joined the Rockets and
36、 struggled with an American style of basketball, many were quick to label Yao “a failure”.可知,许多人并不看好姚明。由此可推知,许多人对姚明持怀疑的(Doubtful)态度,故选B项。A项“友好的”、C项“真诚的”和D项“生气的”均不符合文意。2.C细节理解题。根据第四段中For Americans, Yaos polite and friendly personality is a welcome contrast to the rude behaviour of the NBAs bad boys.可
37、知,美国人喜欢姚明是因为他的礼貌和友好,故选C项。3.A推理判断题。根据最后一段中In addition, Yaos witty answers have changed the opinion that Chinese people are boring.(此外,姚明机智的回答也改变了中国人很无聊的看法。)及Yao is winning supporters within.“Thats because you werent there.”(姚明在联盟中也赢得了不少支持者。在一场火箭队与湖人队的比赛后,奥尼尔因伤缺席比赛,奥尼尔说:“姚明,你打得很好。”姚明说:“那是因为你不在那里。”)可知,
38、姚明很聪明(情商高),对别人也很有礼貌。故选A项。B项“姚明既无聊又骄傲。”和原文正好相反;C项“姚明在NBA选秀中拔得头筹。”和D项“姚明不再是一个失败者了。”均和本题无关。4.D主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其根据第一段可知,本文主要讲述了姚明进入NBA的心路历程,从不被看好,到赢得美国球员的尊重,最终改变了美国人对中国人的看法。D项(姚明对美国人对待中国人的态度的影响。)概括最为全面准确。【高频词汇】1.in the eyes of在心目中,在看来2.bookish adj.书呆子气的3.label v.贴标签于;(尤指不公正地)把称为4.criticism n.批评,批判;指责;评论5.be

41、述内容,尤其是however可知,画线部分和popular的意思相反,即“不那么流行的,普通的”。A项“普通的”符合以上推测,故选A。B项“令人放松的”;C项“流行的,受欢迎的”;D项“积极的”。6.C 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Plus it is good for your heart, your head and your wallet.”可知,Jolynn Jaekel认为步行对人的心脏和大脑都有好处,并且可以省钱,即步行是一项省钱的锻炼。故选C。A项意为“步行受到各个年龄段人们的喜爱”,Jolynn Jaekel只是提到了步行适合各个年龄段的人们,并未涉及喜不喜欢;B项意为“步行比
42、跑步健康得多”,D项意为“步行变得越来越受欢迎”,由第二段内容可知B、D两项都不是Jolynn Jaekel的观点。7.D 细节理解题。根据第四段第一句话可知,他们认为,在某些方面步行优于跑步。故选D。A项“走路有助于解决人们的睡眠问题”不是劳伦斯伯克利国家实验室的科学家的发现,而是俄勒冈州立大学的研究的发现;B项“步行有助于治愈心脏病”错误,劳伦斯伯克利国家实验室发现的是步行能降低患心脏病的风险,而不是治愈;C项“每周步行150分钟可以挽救生命”也不是劳伦斯伯克利国家实验室科学家的发现,是第三段中提到的一项报告阐述的内容。8.B 推理判断题。纵观全文可知,本文主要介绍了健康生活方式中最简单有
43、效的方式步行。由此可推知,可从报纸上介绍生活方式的版块读到该文章。故选B。【高频词汇】1.keep fit保持健康2.attractive adj.有吸引力的3.professional n.专业人员,专家 adj.职业的,专业的4.plus conj.而且,此外5.regularly adv.定期地,经常地6.recommend v.建议;推荐7.effectively adv.有效地8.participant n.参加者;参与者长难句分析原句The report found that walking regularly to fulfill(执行,履行) the 150 minutes o
44、f moderate(适度的) physical exercise every week, recommended by the UKs chief medical officer, could save 37,000 lives each year.分析本句为主从复合句。其中that walking.could save 37,000 lives each year为宾语从句,在这个宾语从句中,to fulfill.every week为动词不定式短语作目的状语,recommended by the UKs chief medical officer为过去分词短语作后置定语。句意报告发现,英
45、国首席医疗官建议的定期步行以完成每周150分钟的适度体育锻炼,每年可挽救3.7万人的生命。.语篇解读本文是一篇说明文。打羽毛球是一项很棒的运动,本文主要就打羽毛球的四个优点展开了说明。1.D根据上文Playing badminton can be a fantastic sport.(打羽毛球可以是一项很棒的运动。)及后文Whats more, playing badminton has many health benefits for your entire body.(更重要的是,打羽毛球对你的整个身体有很多健康益处。)可知,D项(对不同年龄的人来说,它也是一种轻松的运动。)符合上下文语境

47、eart可知,本段主要介绍的是打羽毛球会对心脏有好处。根据后文Your body will be better defended against enlarged arteries that can cause deadly heart attacks.(你的身体将更好地防御动脉扩张,动脉扩张可能会导致致命的心脏病发作。)可知,B项(玩这项运动,你可以使你的心脏更强壮。)符合文意。4.C根据上文Gyms often host leagues, tournaments, and parties.(体育馆经常举办联赛、锦标赛和聚会。)及后文So dont just watch a televisi
48、on program about losing fat. Get out there and join an organized badminton league.(所以不要只看减肥的电视节目。走出去,参加一个有组织的羽毛球联盟。)可知,C项(你可以在公园或体育馆找到羽毛球场。)符合语境。C项中gyms对应上文中Gyms。5.F根据后文Hundreds of unwanted fat can be.enjoyable weight loss exercise.可知,本段的主要内容是打羽毛球可以减肥。故F项(当然,参加这项运动最受欢迎的好处之一就是能快速减肥。)符合语境。F项中weight loss对应后文中weight loss。【高频词汇】1.court n.(网球、羽毛球等的)球场2.flexible adj.灵活的;柔韧的3.coordination n.协调4.swing v.挥动;(使)摆动,摇摆;转弯,转动5.lower blood pressure降低血压6.deadly adj.致命的7.host v.举办,主办
